Okay, we gave it a shot. Gabby loved it, Bongo was scared to death of it and the macaws were more interested in what was under Olivers wing! It was still alot of fun though! I put the tops back on them and Gabby kept flying to it taking the top off, getting a few more nibbles and then flying back to the couch to wipe her beak off, good times! Lol

I didn't take any pics, but Timber was scared of the pumpkin. I gave him a small piece and he dropped it. So, I baked a piece, thinking he might like it cooked. I put it on a plate and sat with him near it. He sniffed it then ignored it. So, I finally cut a few pieces up and put it with his dinner. Later, they were in the bottom of the cage. Stubborn bird! I have half still in the fridge (it was only about 8 inches in diameter) and will try something else with that. It was worth a try anyway, but it seems like I spent half the day with it. I suspect Timber is laughing to himself about me and the pumpkin! ;)

So inspired I picked up a couple of the little pumpkins this morning whilst at the store. When I got home I brought them in here to show Jasper and he growled at them because he wasn't sure what to think. :confused: So I guess I will just wash them and leave one in here near his cage for a while. Silly thing.

good idea ... marco was not sure about it either lol i think its a great idea to keep it by the cage for Jasper to get used to it. I put 2 new foreging toys in marco's cage and she wont even go onto that side of the cage right now LOL .. talk bout silly birds!

No, he wouldn't even eat the seeds! I hand fed him a couple and they hit the floor. Not giving up though. I'm going to put a smaller section on his playstand and see what he does with it (if anything) next.
